Occupying the heart of Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, Glacier Bay proper is considered to be the core homeland of Huna Tlingit. The Huna occupied the Bay prior to its most recent glaciation and, though they now live nearby in Hoonah and other communities, they have continued to use, occupy, and value the lands and waters within the Bay since the glaciers began to retreat over two centuries ago. Simultaneously, since the designation of Glacier Bay as a unit of the National Park Service, Glacier Bay proper has become the focal point of a thriving tourist industry, with most park visitors arriving in the Bay by cruise ship. In past consultation, Huna representatives have expressed to NPS staff that cruise ships have various adverse effects on lands, resources, and values that are of concern to Huna people. Also, in recent years, the NPS has identified locations within Glacier Bay proper that appear to be eligible for designation as “Traditional Cultural Properties” (TCPs), a type of property that is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places by virtue of its cultural and historical importance to the Huna Tlingit. In light of the presence of these TCPs, as well as a variety of other federal mandates, the NPS must assess the potential adverse effects of park operations on lands and resources of importance to Huna Tlingit— including park specific vessel quotas and operating requirements that set limits on the number and operation of cruise ships. Recognizing this, the NPS initiated the current study to systematically identify the scope and nature of the impacts of cruise ship traffic on lands and resources of importance to Huna people, to illuminate the cultural context of those impacts, and to recommend potential avenues for minimizing or mitigating any adverse effects. No fewer than 50 Huna Tlingit served as formal interviewees for this study, and many others contributed informally to the project’s success. Through interviews with these people, as well as repeat visits to Glacier Bay proper with Huna Tlingit interviewees, the researchers systematically documented the nature and extent of cruise ship effects, as described and understood by Huna people. Interviewees identified a number of “tangible” adverse effects, some historical and some ongoing: air and water pollution, trash dispersal, noise pollution, wakes, fish and wildlife disturbances, various impacts on Tlingit boaters, and increased region-wide exposure to shipborne diseases. Interviewees also identified “intangible” adverse effects: displays of “disrespect” by people on ships, the disruption of Huna connections to Glacier Bay, inappropriate public interpretation, and the effects of outside observers on the character of traditional activities. While particular attention is directed here to the effects of cruise ships on TCPs, most of the effects are understood to have broader effects, throughout large portions of Glacier Bay proper and beyond. Positive effects were also noted, especially economic advantages. Seeking to illuminate some of the challenges and potentials of cruise ship tourism from a Huna perspective, interviews also contrasted cruise ship tourism in Glacier Bay with the Icy Strait Point facility, a cruise ship port with tourist facilities that is run by Huna Totem Corporation. Certain key cultural Deur & Thornton – Possible Cruise Ship Impacts on Huna Tlingit Ethnographic Resources in Glacier Bay 3 issues required to conceptualize these effects are also addressed, such as Huna protocols for “respecting” Glacier Bay, traditional Huna concepts of Glacier Bay as uniquely “clean” and spiritually potent, as well as Huna discomfort with the loss of their traditional role as “host” to visitors in their homeland. These elements represent key context for discussions of Huna perceptions of cruise ships, we suggest, and Huna discussions of specific impacts are often only understandable with reference to them. Interviewees recommend a variety of opportunities for minimizing or mitigating these adverse effects of cruise ships in the future management of TCPs and other park lands, waters, and resources. The document advances both specific recommendations and general principles that may be of value in future consultation and communication between Huna and the NPS on matters relating to the future of Glacier Bay. Deur & Thornton – Possible Cruise Ship Impacts on Huna Tlingit Ethnographic Resources in Glacier Bay 4 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES This document represents a summary of a four-year research effort by two professional anthropologists, Drs. Douglas Deur and Thomas F. Thornton, undertaken to document Huna Tlingit perspectives on the effects of cruise ships on their relationship with Glacier Bay proper, within Glacier Bay National Park. Of particular importance in this study are the cultural resource impacts and mitigation options relating to the Vessel Quotas and Operating Requirements (VQOR) plan, which regulates the number of cruise ships operating in the Bay—now, and into the foreseeable future. As the number of ships entering Glacier Bay proper is likely to affect resources that are of enduring interest to Huna Tlingit, the documentation that follows has been developed to aid deliberations regarding the VQOR plan and a range of other management issues and functions within Glacier Bay National Park. While we recognize that the effects of cruise ships may be widely distributed throughout Glacier Bay proper, this document directs particular attention to the effects on potential Traditional Cultural Properties— a category of property on the National Register of Historic Places that requires special consideration in the course of park management. Sitting at the heart of Glacier Bay National Park (GLBA), Glacier Bay proper (GBP) is a cornerstone of the traditional homeland of the Huna (or Hoonah) Tlingit (Goldschmidt and Haas 1998). Archaeological and oral history evidence suggest long occupation of Glacier Bay prior to the most recent glacial event (the so-called Little Ice Age), during which glacial ice displaced the residents of the valley now occupied by Glacier Bay, forcing them to relocate to Hoonah and other Tlingit villages in northern southeast Alaska.

    Proposed Amendments 10, 11, and 12 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Salmon Fisheries in the EEZ off the Coast of Alaska (1) Replace the Fishery Management Plan for the Salmon Fisheries in the EEZ off the Coast of Alaska with the following fishery management plan: FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN For The SALMON FISHERIES In The EEZ Off Alaska North Pacific Fishery Management Council National Marine Fisheries Service, Alaska Region State of Alaska Department of Fish and Game March 2012 North Pacific Fishery Management Council 605 W. 4th Avenue, #306 Anchorage, AK 99501-2252 (blank page) Fishery Management Plan for the Salmon Fisheries in the EEZ Off Alaska SUMMARY This document describes the North Pacific Fishery Management Council’s (Council’s) plan for managing salmon fisheries in a significant portion of the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ or federal waters) off Alaska. The Council developed the Fishery Management Plan for the Salmon Fisheries in the EEZ Off Alaska (FMP) under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson- Stevens Act). The Secretary of Commerce originally approved the Fishery Management Plan for the High Seas Salmon Fishery off the Coast of Alaska East of 175 Degrees East Longitude and implemented it in 1979. The FMP established the Council’s authority over the salmon fisheries in the EEZ, the waters from 3 to 200 miles offshore, then known as the United States Fishery Conservation Zone. The Council excluded from its coverage the Federal waters west of 175° east longitude (near Attu Island) because the salmon fisheries in that area were under the jurisdiction of the International Convention for the High Seas Fisheries of the North Pacific Ocean.
